Aurora and I's interactions are always genuine. This isn't our first time. I love what I do. She loves being who she is. So this works effortlessly. These days, she prefers to be called Helena and I am happy to oblige and to have her with us again. As I plan to watch Game of Thrones, I am sliding in her dm as we talk via Instagram. "Right now I just woke up and while I am thinking of my answers I'm applying makeup and brushing my hair for my webcam show today," she tells me, "also in the background I have a Netflix movie... multitasking." It's easy for me to picture the scene she describes, for at this moment she has my full attention.
